SUMMARY:Advanced Band Weaving Workshop with Kerstin Neumüller
DESCRIPTION:This course takes place online over two days\, Sat\, Nov 21\, and Sun\, Nov 22\, from 10 am-12 pm CST both sessions. \n\nJoin Swedish textile artist and educator Kerstin Neumüller for two online sessions focused on more advanced techniques on a small rigid heddle-style band weaving loom. Suitable for students who have previously practiced repp band weaving on their own or in other classes with Kerstin\, this workshop takes the next step to focus on pick-up patterns and other possibilities on these small\, versatile looms. Students will start by weaving a band with patterned hearts and then discuss the planning and execution of other pick-up band patterns. \nThis virtual class is an excellent option for students who want a refresher on more advanced band weaving techniques\, have previously worked through basic projects from Kerstin’s book Simple Weave\, or have taken an in-person or virtual repp band weaving class with Kerstin previously. During work time\, discuss project options for small looms\, materials\, and weaving band tips. Plan for some additional weaving time on your own between the two sessions to get the most out of this project. \nAdditional information: \n\nThis class has some homework between the two sessions.\nAdvanced registration required.\nStudents provide their own materials for this virtual class and should be comfortable warping their small rigid heddle loom ahead of class; please see the full materials list here.\n\n  \nPrerequisites: \n\nSkill level: Suitable for students with past weaving experience.\nAges: Suitable for ages 12+.\nVirtual class info: This is a live virtual class taught over Zoom. Students need a strong internet connection and a device with video capabilities. To participate in this class\, students must have their video on.
